Chapter 843

"Okay, wait here."

Zhao Xing didn't say much and stepped directly inside.

It really wasn't a lie. He couldn't see clearly from the outside just now, but when he entered, Zhao Xing discovered again that not only were the secret methods here rare, but the shelves were also built with precious wood.

The room emitted an ancient fragrance that made people's spirits alert, and the books on the shelves all emitted a mysterious aura.

Just in a short instant, he felt that there must be a secret method that matched him here. No other reason, this was a subconscious induction.

"The most famous on our third floor are these three: Great Expansion Bi Yi Array Map, Jade Flow Purple Mist Divine Sleeve, and Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map. Each one is a very special existence."

"The Great Expansion Bi Yi Array Map is a secret method used by the ancient Heavenly Machine City to deduce heavenly secrets. If practiced to the deepest level, one can peep into the future or search for past lives. It is a rare deduction secret method."

"The Jade Flow Purple Mist Divine Sleeve is a secret method similar to Mustard Seed Sumeru, which can hide attack means in the sleeves. It is a secret method that can fuse different rules together. The deeper and more rules you comprehend, the more powerful it is!"

"And the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map is a special picture album recording the most strange hundred kinds of flowers and plants on the Jialuo Continent. It also contains three seeds left over from ancient times."

"But we have been researching how to make the seeds take root and sprout since we got it, but we have never done it, so we took it out for sale, hoping that a predestined person will have a way to revive the seeds."

After listening to the detailed explanation of these by the black-robed person, it must be said that Zhao Xing was moved.

These three were all of great help to Zhao Xing now, no matter which one.

The first Great Expansion Bi Yi Array Map could allow him to have more deduction means in the future. Maybe many problems regarding his own safety could be alleviated.

The second Jade Flow Purple Mist Divine Sleeve could allow him to fuse his own laws. It was an incomparably powerful attack means. If he could match it with Geng Metal Origin Rules at that time, it could definitely serve as a trump card for Zhao Xing!

And what he cared about most was the third one, that Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map.

After the black-robed person said that it contained three seeds left over from ancient times, waves arose in his heart.

You must know that he had the Time Divine Tree in his internal world. If others couldn't activate it, it didn't mean he had no way.

But Zhao Xing frowned when he asked about the price. These three items were all expensive, and the price was around 200 million.

Zhao Xing could understand the other two. After all, they were all very powerful secret methods, but the third one, the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map, was also at this price, which made Zhao Xing somewhat surprised.

Why was the price so high when it was clearly a seed that couldn't be activated?

Thinking, he asked this question to the black-robed person.

"This young master, the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map is not so expensive because of the seeds, but because of the various heavenly treasures recorded on it."

"You must know that many rare treasures in the world are almost invisible now, but this map has records of them."

Hearing this obviously raised-price talk from the black-robed person, Zhao Xing looked at him with a smile and said: "You mean these heavenly materials and earthly treasures can't be found, so people have to follow this treasure map-like item to try their luck to have a chance to find them?"

After speaking, Zhao Xing looked at the secret methods placed in other places by himself. Fortunately, there were some brief introductions on them, so he could understand them.

The black-robed person was stunned when he saw Zhao Xing directly point out the truth of the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map.

To be honest, what Zhao Xing said was indeed true. The reason why this Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map hadn't been sold for so long was because of this point.

He pondered for a while, looked at Zhao Xing who was looking for secret methods, and said: "Then I'll give you a 30% discount, what do you think?"

Just when Zhao Xing wanted to say something, a mental transmission from the Time Divine Tree suddenly came to his mind.

"Buy... buy it. No matter how many energy stones, you must buy it. I have an impression of those three seeds. It seems to be related to those three invincible seeds from ancient times."

Hearing the Time Divine Tree's transmission, a look of surprise appeared in the depths of Zhao Xing's pupils.

He moved slightly in his heart and responded to the black-robed person: "Hmm.... I'll consider it and talk about it later."

Actually, even without the Time Divine Tree's reminder, Zhao Xing had already taken a fancy to the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map, but naturally it was impossible to agree directly. There must be room for bargaining.

"Mirage Clone Technique?"

Just at this moment, he found a broken and old book in a corner (bccd) at the very edge of the wooden shelf. Although this book was broken, its name could still be seen normally, but the detailed explanation was no longer visible.

"This is the Mirage Clone Technique, a top-class movement martial skill. If practiced successfully, you can condense phantom clones in your body that can be fake. As long as your soul power is strong, you can control the clones from as far away as you want."

"Once the Mirage Clone is practiced, it can emit the same spiritual power aura and soul pressure as the main body. Unless the mental power is far higher than the caster, it is possible to see through......."

After listening to the black-robed person's introduction, Zhao Xing's eyes lit up.

To be honest, he took a fancy to this Mirage Clone Technique. If he could practice it successfully, he would have one more life-saving means.

At this time, the black-robed person quoted: "The price is 50 million energy stones."

Zhao Xing nodded, then turned to the first page. When he wanted to turn to the second page, he found that he couldn't turn the page no matter what.

However, the first page described the cultivation method. The first rule was to collect requirements related to illusion rules, and the second was to require long-term refining to create a clone that was no different from the main body.

However, this illusion rule belongs to a special existence among all rules. It is not difficult to say it is difficult, as long as you have a brain, you can comprehend some.

But wanting to deeply understand the illusion rules is not something ordinary people can do. From a certain level, this illusion rule is quite similar to Geng Metal Rules. Both can only comprehend a part, but it is as difficult as ascending to heaven to improve.

But Zhao Xing is different. In his internal world, Qianmu Liuli and Empress Bi Luo are big shots in illusion, and their current illusion rules have reached the Sixth Layer!

Zhao Xing knew the opportunity had come. He said slowly to the black-robed person: "I have read the requirements on this. Those who practice illusion rules generally have no use for this. They will be seen through at a glance. And according to records, no one on the Jialuo Continent has exceeded the Sixth Layer in practicing illusion rules, so this is somewhat chicken ribs."

Hearing Zhao Xing's words, the black-robed person pondered for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "Then if you can buy all three just now, I will give you a 40% discount on the Hundred Flowers Hongmeng Map, and I will give you this Mirage Clone Technique!"

"Deal!"

Zhao Xing was stunned for a moment, not expecting this black-robed person to be so refreshing.

After reacting, he agreed without hesitation.

Calculating it all, it was more than 500 million energy stones. Being able to buy these secret methods, Zhao Xing suddenly felt that he had made a big profit!

And the black-robed person sighed and said: "You are lucky. Because of the Purple Light Token recently, every family is hoarding energy stones, so you can buy these secret methods at such a low price."

Zhao

"You don't know?"

"I have been in seclusion recently, so naturally, I don't know what has been happening in the outside world."

"It's like this: it is said that the Purple Light Tokens have all been collected and are ready to be activated. Any faction that possesses a Purple Light Token can participate."

Hearing this, Zhao Xing was stunned.

All collected?

What kind of 'all collected' is this? He still had one sitting in his inner world; could that one possibly be fake?

Regarding this news, Zhao Xing immediately felt like sneering; he didn't know who had spread this fake news again.

Zhao Xing guessed that this was just an excuse to lure out those who still held Purple Light Tokens, making them nervous so they would reveal their flaws.

But to be honest, this tactic was truly not very clever. How could someone who was truly hiding be exposed because of this groundless news?

After chatting with the black-robed person for a few more sentences, Zhao Xing took the four secret arts he had purchased and left.

It must be said that this trip had already cost him over 600 million energy stones, which truly made his heart ache for quite a while.

When he and Gong Jian left, the black-robed person, who had previously worn a bitter expression, now had a look of excitement on his face.

He looked at the bag containing over 600 million energy stones with excitement; the secret art he sold to Zhao Xing, the Hundred Flowers Primordial Diagram, had been sitting in his shop for decades without selling.

The reason was that no one could grow the seeds within it, and on top of that, the heavenly treasures required could not be found, which was why it wouldn't sell.

In fact, the price was only around 20 million energy stones; the reason it was worth that price was that the records of the heavenly treasures on it were authentic.

And he had raised the price to 200 million; even with a 60% discount, the price was still 120 million, which was equivalent to him making a clean profit of 100 million.

Even when settling accounts with the owner later, he would still be able to get a substantial commission.

As for the Mirage Clone Technique being given to Zhao Xing, that was because the secret art was simply useless to anyone who had not come into contact with illusion-type rules.

And most people would choose to comprehend rules that were extremely helpful to themselves; who would be idle enough to cultivate an illusion-type rule that one could see through at a glance? It had no power, no prestige, and its greatest use was only to deceive mortals.

But who would be bored enough to cultivate such a rule just to perform for mortals?

So, after this whole process, it seemed like he had lost a fortune, but in reality, he had made a killing.

However, in the near future, Zhao Xing would slap his face hard.

As for Zhao Xing, after leaving the shop selling secret arts, he wandered around the black market.

This place was different from North Sea City; all the items sold in this black market were things he had never seen before—let alone seen, some things he hadn't even heard of.

For example, on one stall, there were pink fruits the size of infants.

According to the stall owner, this was an 'Yin Luo Fruit' used to strengthen the soul.

Chapter 281: Demigod Pursuit, Powerful Counter-Kill!

"Then what is the specific method of use?"

The stall owner replied in a hoarse voice: "This Yin Luo Fruit has the effect of amplifying the soul whether consumed directly or refined into an elixir. Of course, refining it into an elixir with auxiliary ingredients allows the effect to be better unleashed.

And don't look at how big this Yin Luo Fruit is; its quantity is extremely rare. Usually, these fruits are offered as tribute to the True God Lords of Donghuangcheng to consume.

Now I am only selling it to you for 10 million energy stones; look at whether it is~ especially discounted!"

Before Zhao Xing could say anything, Gong Jian, who was behind him, looked at the Yin Luo Fruit before them and sneered: "10 million? Are you- trying to fool a ghost!"

The stall owner's expression faltered: "This is a genuine Yin Luo Fruit; the market price is just like this."

"I say, friend, how many days have you been setting up this stall here? Have you ever sold one?

Market price, my foot. Go ask around—would anyone want this for 3 million? This thing is normally the size of a fist; yours has clearly grown crookedly. Only the volume increased, but the internal amplification attribute did not grow along with it."

10 million energy stones—if you can prove that the amplification contained in this Yin Luo Fruit matches its volume, I will buy it without another word, and I will take as many as you have.
